In 1954 A steel industry strike halted work on the 500 foot Wavestack antenna but CBHT was still hoping to be on the air before Christmas, using a temporary antenna with reduced power of 30,000 watts. Reception was expected to be satisfactory up to 70 miles from the Geizers Hill transmitter site. The CBC opened CBHT-TV, channel 3, on December 20, from temporary studios at College Street School and using a temporary antenna, the second TV station on the air in Nova Scotia. CJCB-TV Sydney had started on October 9. The CBC Network programs were run on a delay basis via kinescope. Don Tremaine read the news, then Max Ferguson, well known to radio audiences across the country as Rawhide, was the host of GAZETTE, a nightly news magazine show with Rube Hornstein doing the weather and Pat Connolly on sports.
